  Take a look at this book bundle! It contains the following books: 
    - Mercantilism Explained: Mercantilism, a dominant economic theory from the 16th to the 18th century, played a pivotal role in shaping the economic and political landscape of early modern Europe. Rooted in the belief that a nation's wealth and power were measured by its stockpile of precious metals, particularly gold and silver, mercantilism emphasized the importance of maintaining a favorable balance of trade. Nations sought to maximize exports while minimizing imports, often employing protectionist policies to achieve this goal. This approach reflected the belief that global wealth was finite, creating fierce competition among nations to secure the largest share of resources and economic advantage. 
    - The Neoliberal Revolution: Neoliberalism is a term widely used to describe a set of economic policies and ideas that emphasize the importance of free markets, deregulation, privatization, and limited government intervention. Emerging in the mid-20th century, neoliberalism represented a distinct shift away from the welfare state and Keynesian economics, which had dominated Western economies in the post-World War II era. 
    - The Venture Capital Playbook: Venture capitalists, typically investors or firms, provide capital in exchange for equity ownership in the company. This investment is usually made in industries that are considered innovative or disruptive, such as technology, healthcare, and biotechnology. 
    - Venture Capital Explained: The venture capital industry is an essential component of the startup ecosystem, providing financial backing to companies that may not yet be profitable but have strong potential. Many of the world’s most successful companies, including Amazon, Google, and Facebook, received early funding from venture capital firms.

  Authoritarianism and...

  This bundle consists of the following books: 
    - Totalitarianism Unmasked: Totalitarianism is a political system in which the state holds total control over every aspect of public and private life, leaving no room for opposition or individual freedoms. Unlike other forms of governance, where political competition and individual rights are somewhat preserved, totalitarianism demands absolute loyalty and conformity. The concept of totalitarianism emerged in the early 20th century, though its roots can be traced back to ancient and medieval periods. In its modern form, it is most closely associated with dictatorial regimes that arose in the aftermath of World War I and throughout the 20th century. 
    - Kleptocracy: Kleptocracy, derived from the Greek words kleptēs (thief) and kratos (rule), refers to a system of governance where leaders exploit their positions of power to enrich themselves at the expense of the public. It is a regime of theft, where corruption is not merely an incidental byproduct of governance but a fundamental aspect of its operation. In kleptocratic systems, the state becomes a tool for personal and collective gain for a small elite, often at the cost of societal well-being and economic development. 
    - Corporatism: Corporatism, as a political and economic system, refers to the integration of corporate and governmental interests, where the lines between the state and private enterprises often blur. It involves the collaboration of various sectors, such as businesses, government, and occasionally labor unions, to form policies and frameworks that benefit the economy and society, but sometimes at the expense of democratic processes.

  How to Defeat the Far Right:...

  ‘A brilliant and challenging book’ GORDON BROWN 
  From the founder of Britain’s leading antifascist organisation, HOPE not hate, this is an urgent call to resist the forces of extremism on the march in Western societies – and how to go about it. 
  If you’re shocked and disconcerted by the rise of intolerance and hate, you’re not alone. 
  Drawing from 35 years of campaigning and journalism, Nick Lowles shows how anti-immigration, antisemitic and Islamophobic attacks have proliferated in the modern world, and how Britain – with the likes of Tommy Robinson and the growth of Reform UK – has been far from immune from far-right politics. 
  From HOPE not hate’s pioneering campaigns against the BNP in east London to the impact of the ‘manosphere’ and the issues in Netflix's Adolescence; from explorations of the pernicious influence of ‘race science’ and conspiracy theory to the interplay of deprivation and intolerance in Britain’s deindustrialised towns, Lowles entwines his inspirational story with hard-won lessons from decades of activism. 
  His conclusions – which do not shy away from awkward truths for campaigners – suggest practical ways for the far right to be defeated. And he shares powerful examples – from a participant-led youth club in Hull to Syrian refugees connecting with local people over falafel in Bradford – of finding the joy in showing that, hard as it can seem, HOPE can triumph over hate. 
  In his latest non-fiction work, Lowles explores the social and political ideologies that underpin totalitarianism and organised terrorism. It's a true biography of activists fighting against ethnic intolerance and fascism, making it a must-read for those interested in these topics.

  Since September 11, 2001, Seymour M. Hersh has riveted readers -- and outraged the Bush Administration -- with his stories in The New Yorker magazine, including his breakthrough pieces on the Abu Gharaib prison scandal. Now, in Chain of Command, he brings together this reporting, along with new revelations, to answer the critical question of the last three years: how did America get from the clear morning when hijacked airplanes crashed into the World Trade Center and the Pentagon to a divisive and dirty war in Iraq? 
  Hersh established himself at the forefront of investigative journalism thirty-five years ago when he broke the news of the massacre in My Lai, Vietnam, for which he won a Pulitzer Prize. Ever since, he's challenged America's power elite by publishing the stories that others can't or won't tell. 
  In Chain of Command, Hersh takes an unflinching look behind the public story of President Bush's ""war on terror"" and into the lies and obsessions that led America into Iraq. With an introduction by The New Yorker's editor, David Remnick, Chain of Command is a devastating portrait of an Administration blinded by ideology and of a President whose decisions have made the world a more dangerous place for America.

  American Fascism - How the GOP...

  Trump is running for President again and American democracy is on the ropes and teetering on the brink of authoritarianism controlled by theocrats and oligarchs. With its cherished institutions hobbled, political norms trampled, guardrails severely damaged, and body politic divided by chasms of race and geography, can the U.S. survive another Trump administration dedicated to establishing de facto single party rule? In this compelling, comprehensive analysis, Brynn Tannehill draws on her expertise in studying the collapse of weak democracies around the globe and her previous research in law, political science, economics and right-wing populism to explain the trajectory of how we got here and the current threats we face. Most importantly, she analyzes what the characteristics of fascism are, if they are applicable to the base of the GOP today, and what that means for us should Trump succeed in establishing permanent minoritarian rule. American Fascism is a surgical analysis of 250 years of struggle for democracy in America and a prescient prognosis of what’s to come if we do not heed Tannehill’s warnings and advice.
